EIGH - Up 5,600% Since The Guru Alerted Readers

EIGH just keeps on giving gains.  Readers had the change to capitalize on some big gains with this stock.

It just keeps heading higher.


EXPU - Removed From The Guru’s Buy and Hold List

EXPU has been removed today from the Guru's buy and hold list.  We were bullish on the stock until we discovered (from a subscriber) of a 2 million share disbursement for stock promotion.  While we understand the need for promotion, we also view the share size as being well beyond expectations.  2 million shares, at today's close, is the equivalent of $320,000.   That number is in far excess of what a company should pay for promotion.

Long term stock holders are getting the shaft under such an overly generous deal.  It is one thing to pay for promotion, it is entirely another to vastly over pay at the expense of shareholders.

Today's price action tells the story better than I.  A nice red wick down, in what I suspect will be just one of many more down days.

GOIG - Now A 800% Gain From The Guru’s Bottom Call

GOIG continued its ascent today aided by some company released news (pasted below).  The top has been reached today.  Just like when the Guru called the bottom at $.0004, today the Guru is calling the top at $.0038.  Congratulations to all of you readers who heeded my call.  Now is the time to pocket those profits.

Can you still be a bull when this market’s technicals are so awful?

The family wants me to watch the Super Bowl with them and stop this darn blogging. And you know, I think that's a pretty good idea so I'm just going provide a really abbreviated post that looks at our Alert HQ overall market statistics.

The following charts are derived from data collected during our Alert HQ process and they provide a high-level look at a couple of the indicators we track across the whole market.

The view from Alert HQ --

Let's start with our moving average analysis.


For this first chart we count the number of stocks above various moving averages and count the number of moving average crossovers, as well. We scan roughly 7000 stocks and ETFs each weekend and plot the results against a chart of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY).

This chart shows the broad-based deterioration in the market. Almost 70% of stocks are now below their 50-DMA. The number of cross-overs to the downside has accelerated. I don't show it on the charts but roughly 75% of stocks have fallen below their 20-DMA, as well. We are midway between the extreme levels as we saw in March 2009 and the levels we saw during the two pullbacks in 2009.

The next chart provides our trending analysis. It looks at the number of stocks in strong up-trends or down-trends based on Aroon analysis.


This chart tells a similar story. Current levels are midway between those seen at the market lows in March and during the pullbacks in September and November.

Conclusion - why I'm still a bull

OK, I have to ask: should the market be sinking to levels last seen when the fate of capitalism was in doubt and the financial system was teetering on the brink? I don't think so.

So the interpretation of these charts is that the market is greatly oversold. Unfortunately, markets can continue in an oversold mode until some catalyst changes investor sentiment. Luckily, we continue to see modest progress in U.S. economic reports. Improving fundamentals will eventually carry the day. As I said a week ago: do not short this market unless you're a trader.


Dividends save the day — 10 stocks with strong up-trends and dividend growth

Everyone is aware that the market has been going through some tough times for the last few weeks. Major averages are off their peaks roughly 7% and a full-fledged 10% correction or worse is not out of the question.

It turns out, however, that not every stock is taking a dive. I ran a screen that that looks at the Trend Leaders list at Alert HQ and looks for which stocks have increased their dividends. These dividend growers seem to be practically impervious to the downturn. And they stand out because so many others on the Trend Leaders list these days are inverse ETFs.

Here is the list of 10 dividend growers that are exhibiting strong up-trends on their stock charts. Note that in order to be on the Trend Leaders list a stock has to show strong results in all three indicators: Aroon, DMI and MACD.

Symbol Name Dividend TTM New Dividend % Increase
MTR MESA ROYALTY TRUST 2.169 3.43 58.14%
NRGP Inergy Holdings, L.P. 3.32 3.76 13.25%
NOC NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORP. 1.69 1.72 1.78%
MCD MCDONALDS CORPORATION 2.05 2.2 7.32%
DV DEVRY, INC. 0.18 0.20 11.11%
ARG AIRGAS, INC. 0.70 0.88 25.71%
LANC Lancaster Colony Corporation 1.16 1.20 3.45%
LSBX LSB Corporation 0.22 0.28 27.27%
PRGO Perrigo Company 0.23 0.25 8.70%
TESS TESSCO Technologies Incorporated 0.20 0.40 100.00%

Here's a few comments on some of the stocks on this list:
  •  MESA ROYALTY TRUST (MTR) is benefiting from solid performance of its oil and gas properties
  • Inergy Holdings, L.P. (NRGP) has been absolutely relentless in its march upward. It is also involved in energy and operates in the entire supply chain for natural gas, from processing to sales to retail customers.
  • DeVry (DV) has actually broken out to the upside as it pretty much ignores the downturn. It may be in line to benefit from the administration's proposed higher education plans.
  • Airgas (ARG) just received a $1.5 billion takeover offer from Air Products & Chemicals (APD) so I'm not the only one seeing value here
  • Lancaster Colony Corporation (LANC) just reported higher earnings and has also broken out to the upside
  • LSB Corporation (LSBX) is a regional bank - not much news just conservative management and the ability to raise the dividend rather than look for government handouts
  • Perrigo Company (PRGO) is another stock with a relentless up-trend. This healthcare stock is benefiting from good earnings and analyst upgrades.
  • TESSCO Technologies Incorporated (TESS) has been on a tear since early December. The company just reported good quarterly earnings and is the only tech stock on this list.
Dividends can provide investors comfort when a stock is pulling back. These ten stocks have avoided the recent market pullback and are boosting dividends, to boot. Not a bad combination.


Weekend Winners and Losers - Alert HQ BUY and SELL signals for February 5, 2010

This is a little different than the usual quick post announcing that the weekend's stock signals are now available at Alert HQ. I wanted to announce that I have made some changes to how some of the signals are generated.

I have blended a calculation of Slow Stochastics into the determination of the Swing Trading Signals. Slow Stochastics is another approach to determining when a stock is moving from being over-bought and into a decline or from being over-sold and then into a rally. Combined with the Bollinger Band analysis and Williams %R calculations that were already in place, the Swing Trading Signals should be more reliable. There may also be fewer signals generated on any particular day now that the criteria have become a little more stringent.

There has also been an improvement in the way we identify Trend Busters. The algorithm is now more precise and determining when the stock price broke above or below the trend line has become more accurate. The result is that you will likely see a larger number of stocks on the Trend Busters list.

This weekend's signals --

Today we have the following stock picks and signals:
  • Based on daily data, we have 6 Alert HQ BUY signals and 252 SELL signals
  • Based on weekly data, we have 5 Alert HQ BUY signal and 180 SELL signals
  • We have 93 Bollinger Band Breakouts based on daily data and 175 Breakouts based on weekly data.
  • We have 827 Cash Flow Kings
  • 28 Swing Signals -- 24 BUY signals and 3 SELL Signals plus one Strong BUY
  • 108 Trend Leaders, all in strong up-trends according to Aroon, MACD and DMI. We have 19 stocks that are new additions to the list and 28 that fell off the previous list.
  • 104 Trend Busters based on daily data of which only 7 are BUY signals. We also have 323 Trend Busters based on weekly data.
  • 46 Gap Signals -- stocks with upside or downside gaps or gaps that have been closed. We also have 204 Gap Signals based on weekly data.
The view from Alert HQ --

Well, the SELL signals keep piling up and it's no surprise. Major averages suffered another down week, especially the Russell 2000 which was off 1.5%.

Friday, however, stocks finished strong in the last hour and this provided a little juice for our Swing Signals list which actually shows a good number of BUY signals. Elsewhere, BUY signals are few and far between and those that do show up are all the more notable for doing so. Many are driven by earnings news and that's the best kind of underpinning for a rally.

So as this market teeters on the edge of a correction, maintain a position of caution. But keep an eye on our Alert HQ signals and make sure you have a few good candidates to invest in when it's time to get back into this market.
